Rev. Hopkins Speaks at Banquet
TO GLACIER
NATIONAL PARK
VIA “SKY CRIB”
Mountain climbing can be easy if
you’re sitting back and watching it. This
was only one of the many interesting
experiences enjoyed by armchair natural­ists
of the Huntington area who braved
a considerable amount of nature in the
form -of wind and rain on Tuesday
'evening, February 20, to congregate in
Davis Hall for Howard Cleaves’ all-color
travelogue, “By Sky Crib to Glacier.”
the third in this season’s series of five
Audubon Screen Tours.
In the summer of 1948 Mr. Cleaves,
an outdoor photographer of Staten
Island, New York, a place as far remote
from the scenes of Tuesday evening’s
Screen Tour as the Republicans have
been from the White House, decided
since his son Henderson had just grad­uated
from high school and had not yet
been taken on a long promised trip to
some of our nation’s scenic points of
interest, that this matter had better be
taken care of before the son departed
on his own into the cruel world. The
itinerary was through Glacier and Yel­lowstone
National Parkis, and the Grand
Teton Mountains ; the result: the above-mentioned
travelogue.
The “skiy crib” in question is not a
baby bed for stars. This arrangement,
highly recommended by Mr. Cleaves for
saving hotel bills, consists instead of a
Beauty-Rest mattress, complete with
pup tent, all mounted on top of a car.
Each night when Cleaves & Son be­came
tired of traveling, they merely got
out of their car and “moved upstairs”
Pullman style. If curiosity is really
what kills cats, the “sky crib” left be­hind
a sizeable trail of dead mouse-catchers
as it accompanied Mr. Cleaves
and Henderson to their first stop, Gla­cier
National Park, where they went on
a conducted tour of this storehouse of
natural beauty with about thirty others,
capturing their explorations on film for
the benefit of Audubon *audiences. Next
to come under the scrutinizing lens of
the Cleaves’ camera were Yellowstone
National Park and the Grand Teton
Mountains, and audiences seeing the
pictures feel almost as if they were
there in person.
Homeward bound once again, Howard
and Henderson Cleaves took one of their
most unique shots closer to home, in
Pennsylvania, where they came upon
some day-old-bread scalpers doing a
land-office tourist trade on a bridge.
Tourists were snatching the stuff at the
rate of two loaves for a quarter in order
to satisfy the desires of seemingly mil­lions
of panhandling fish below.
Two more Audubon Screen Tours re­main
in this season for Huntington
College- Tickets for these tours, the
least expensive form of travel found
anywhere, are in charge of Prof. Muck
and Prof. Pfister.

MEMORIAL HALL
PRESENTS CONCERT
After a strenuous 1 a. nr. rehearsal
on Friday, February 16, the rough and
ready musicians and singers of Wright
Memorial Hall were ready and more
than anxious to present their annual
“Hour of Harm” later that same morn­ing
in Davis Hall.
The orchestra for this momentous mu­sical
event was the no-doubt noted Hunt­ington
College Bum and Bugle Corps,
directed with gusto and abandon by a
musician With years of experience direct­ing
traffic on his grade school patrol,
and consisting of Paul Sell and Carroll
Fogwell, trumpets; Ray Sommer and
Herb Cassel, trombones; Bill Boswell
(who arrived late), goose horn; and
Odell Carlisle, bass hatbox.
Opening the program with a bang
were Don Betterly, Russ Birdsall. Le­roy
Sharp and Bill Couch, the boys of
the U. S. Male Quartet, sometimes re­ferred
to as the Choral Reefers, who
rendered at the tops of their lungs the
contemporary American composition,
“The College Gang.”
Also featured were Digger & Gene,
performing with extraordinary virtuos­ity
on the Hawaiian Electric suitcases,
and sounding very much like Les Paul.
William and his icky ukulele shared
the spotlight with Paul and his magic
mandolin, and vocalist .Tames Dempsey
performed the spirited spiritual, “Shad-rack.”
The M. C.’s job was ably man­handled
by Leroy Sharp.
Probably the biggest surprise in the
whole clambake came when it all ended
in a serious note, with the audience ris­ing
and singing the National Anthem
and the Alma Mater, the latter illus­trated
with color slides taken on campus
by Paul Sell.
It was suggested that the boys of the
dorm pool their talent more often. The
pool suggested was the Wabash River.
STATE OFFICIALS
INSPECT H. C.
On February 20, 1951, Huntington
College was inspected. The state in­spectors
came about 10 a. m. and spent
several hours looking over the school.
We don’t have any report yet as to how
things looked, but of course we hope for
the best.
EDDIE RETURNS FOR
VISIT
CpI. Ed Gordon was in Huntington
from February 17 to the 25th, visiting
friends and relatives. We were glad
he was able to attend the annual Wash­ington
Banquet on February 23rd.
accompanied Kenny Thornell for his
cornet' solo. Mrs. Robert Paine gave a
reading appropriate for the occasion,
concerning George Washington and his
hatchet.
The College Quartette, composed of
William Couch, Leroy Sharp, Russell
Birdsall and Don Betterly sang two
numbers. The first, “Battle Hymn of
the Republic,” featured Jim Dempsey on
the solo work, with Bert Lange and
Prof. Smith at the pianos. Their sec­ond
number was “This is My Country.”
The four Impromptu Speeches, pre­pared
and submitted by college students,
included: Ruth Becker, speaking on
“Liberty and Freedom,” Sam Kaiser on
“The Bell I Want to Be,” Elizabeth
Rumfield on “What the Liberty Bell
/Means to Me as a Christian,” and Alvin
Boggs on “Church Bells and Liberty
Bells.”
Galen Colclesser, Public Relations Di­rector
for the college, next introduced
the speaker, whom he came to know
during World War II. Rev. Hopkins
was at that time Chaplain Hopkins.
Mrs. Colclesser sang “God Bless Am­erica,”
at the close of the address of
the evening, accompanied by Mrs. Helen
Thomas Bucher.

KOREA WAR
KEY TOPIC OF
REV. HOPKINS
“If we settle for less than the Man­churian
border. Asia is lost to Commu­nism.
and Russia is encouraged to start
war. We must do it. too. without drop­ping
an A-bomb on Chinese soil.” These
words were included in the address of
the Rev. Garland Evans Hopkins,
speaker for the Washington Banquet,
held last Friday evening, February 23.
The Banquet, a traditional event for
faculty and students of the college, took
place this year in the Masonic Temple.
Rev. Hopkins further declared, “We
must take whatever steps necessary to
assure that Korea be free and united.”
Rev. Hopkins has traveled into six com­munist
countries, into most of the dem­ocracies
of the world, into Fascist Spain,
and into the totalitarian countries of the
Near East since the War. ’Frequently he
is called into consultation by the State
Department.
Next in importance after Korea’s free­dom
and union, asserts The Rev. Mr.
Hopkins, is the severing of Communist
China’s ruler, Mao, from Russia. Gen­eral
Li, who became Chiang-Kai-shek's
legal successor is the legitimate ruler,
the speaker said, and neither Mao nor
Chiang.
A Marshall Plan for Asia, many times
over the proposed $35,000,000 must be
announced, according to Hopkins, to as­sure
the Asiatics that we as Americans
and as Christians are interested in them.
In further discussion of the Chinese
question, Rev. Hopkins said that today
there are three Chinas—Commiunist
China, Nationalist China, and Walter
Judd’s China. Judd is the son of mis­sionaries
. in China, himself a former
medi al missionary, and now a Con­gressman
from Minnesota, critical of
Secretary of State Dean Acheson’s
China policy.
Convinced by his travels, Rev- Hop­kins
assured his hearers that the Ameri­can
experiment ' has been a great suc­cess.
Even our minorities are better off
here in America than they would be
anywhere else in the world. To use his
own words, “no .minority in America of
any size would be advantaged one bit
elsewhere in the world. Minorities in-
America have more rights and privileges
and more security than minority groups
in any other country.” He hastened to
emphasize, however, that before com­plete
justice may be established for all
minorities, America has a large task
before her, and declared that segrega­tion
is not democratic, and certainly not
Christian,

Union. was toastmaster for the affair.
Invocation was offered by the Rev. Paul
A Rasche, pastor of St. Peter’s Evan­gelical
and Reformed Church.
Mrs. Evelyn Wohlford provided dinner
music for the occasion on the piano, and

OUR STRENGTH
DR. W. P. MUSGRAVE
The strength of any institution comes from the character of its members and
the quality of its product. This is particularly true of the Christian College. Based
upon the ideals of Christ and His ethical practices, such a college must meet the
needs of individuals for high quality in education plus the moral and spiritual
standards which make up the Christian life.
No area of activity may go untouched by *these principles, if the Christian
College community is to maintain its high calling. Prayer and the other forms of
worship will count for little, if teachers and students do not carry out their daily
tasks as Christians. This means that they put forth their best efforts in study, in
cooperative action, and in worship.
A college may be said to be a community of experienced and inexperienced
students. Their concern is to arrive at the truth and its application to human re­quirements.
They are seriously seeking answers to such questions as:
(1) What in general is being said and done?
(2) How in particular is it being said and done?
(3) Is it true?
(4) What of it?
If we discover that what is said is not true, them we need go no further with it:
but, if it is found to be true, then we must face our fourth question. Facts seldom
come to us without some interpretation, explicit or implied.
In the Christian College these questions must receive the Christian answer.
Teachers and students bear the responsibility of intellectual and spiritual^prepara-tion
before meeting the classroom situation. The Christian approach will bring
, forth Christian results.
Huntington College is attempting to develop and maintain the Christ-centered
program. The success of this enterprise depends upon the spiritual dedication of
every member of the institution and the aid which comes from the divine. In these
times of critical decision Christian Life Emphasis is a year-around essential re­quirement
in training and leadership. Let us trust God 'for strength, remembering
that He is depending on us.
Three days after the
day before yesterday.
Dear Moron,
I received your letter which you never
wrote to me, so I sat down pencil in
hand to write you a letter on my type­writer.
I don’t know where I lived before I
moved to where I live now. When you
come to see me ask anyone where 1 live,
as no one knows.
I am so sorry we are so far together,
and wish we Could be closer apart.
We are having more weather this
year than last. We had a snow storm
here tomorrow and it covered the ground
so deep you could see the railroad
tracks.
Your Aunt Mabie is in bed with the
measels, they locked her in her room
but she broke out anyway.
My Aunt Heater died yesterday and
is doing nicely. Hope you are the
same.
Cousin Edgar is near death’s door
and we are hoping the doctor can pull
him through.
Our good- friends Ida and Sherman
got married next Wednesday. They
would have been married before last
month if Liz’s father had not been out
of work. I don’t know where they are
going to live but if you find out first
I'll let you know.
I started up to see you the other day
and I saw a sign that said “This Will
Take you to Huntington College,” so I
got on that sign and sat for hours and
the thing didn’t move an inch.
I am mailing your eoat by express,
so I cut off the buttons to make it light­er
(they’re in the right hand pocket on
the left hand side). If you don’t get
this let me know and I’ll mail it.
As you thought.
A Moron.
P. S. I could have sent you the six
dollars I owe you but I didn't think of
it until I sealed the envelope.
Moron.
LET GO
AND LET GOD
By Herbert Cherry
We read over in the book of Psalms
in the thirty-seventh chapter and the
fifth verse these words: “Commit thy
way unto the Lord, trust also in him,
and he shall bring it to pass.”
It is one thing to be. willing to take
the Lord, to intend to take the Lord,
to be trying to take the Lord for the
blessing you need; but it ,is quite an­other
thing to take the Lord and count
it done; this is committal. It is to
drop your letter into the postoffice box,
and not hold onto it by the corner, but
let it go and leave the responsibility of
its delivery with the authorities. We
find that all too often we are unwilling
to commit our all to the Lord, but w,e
like to hang on and not completely sur­render
and commit our life and our
way to the Lord. There is real joy
and happiness for those who are willing
to let go and let God have his way.
We find now that committal is only
the first step. There is another step
for us to take which we call trust. Many
people are simply trying but not trust­ing
and there is no more help in that
than in the faint efforts of the poor
little kitten which has fallen into a well,
and was in the process of being rescued.
The farmer had heard its pitiful cries
and noticed that it had climbed out of
the water and was hanging onto a ledge
in the brick wall. He gently dropped
the bucket down beneath it and tried
to induce it to drop in, but the kitten
simply reached out its little paws and
then' drew them back timorously, and
cried and cried again in its helplessness
and despair. This was all in vain. The
kitten could not be rescued until it
would let go of the ledge and commit
itself to the bucket. The struggle lasted
a long while until at last, tired and
ready to fall, it ventured; there was
a little plunge, and the farmer knew
by the added weight that the refugee
was safely caught, and it was a small
matter now to land his burden on solid
ground.
Exactly so we hesitate and struggle,
until at last, tired, we just let go, and
then it is easy for God to do something
for us. The prayer of faith is a trans­action
which you must settle at a defin­ite
moment and then we must trust him.
As helpless as a child ,who clings
Fast to his father’s arm,
And easts his weakness on the strength,
That keeps him safe from harm
So I, my Father, cling to thee,
And thus I every hour
Would link my earthly feebleness
To Thy Almightly Power.
Reasons Why I Swear
1. It pleases mother so much.
2. It is a fine mark of manliness.
3. It proves I have self-control.
4. It indicates how clearly my mind
operates.
5. It makes my conversation so
pleasing to everybody.
6. It leaves no doubt in anyone’s
mind as to my good breeding.
7. It impresses people that I have
more than ordinary education.
8. It is an unmistakable sign of cul­ture
and refinement.
9. It makes me a very desirable
personality among women and children
and in respectable society.
10. It is my way of honoring God,
Who said, “Thou shalt not take the
name of the Lord thy God in vain.”
—From a Church Calendar
Everyone today needs to know more
about the Socialist-Communist idea of
taking “from one according to his abil­ity,”
and giving “to each according to
his need.” One teacher gives the fol­lowing
lesson in Socialism:
When one of the brighter or harder-wonking
pupils makes a grade of 95 on
a test, I suggest that I take away 20
points and give them to a student who
has made only 55 points on his test.
Thus each would contribute according
to his ability and—since both would
have a passing mark—each would re­ceive
according to his need. After I
have juggled the grades of all the other
pupils in this fashion, the result is
usually a “common ownership” grade of
between 75 and 80—the minimum need­ed
for passing, or for survival. * Then
I speculate with the pupils as to the
probable results if I actually used the
socialistic theory for grading papers.
First, the highly productive pupils—
and they are always a minority in school
as well as in life—would soon lose all
incentive for producing. Why strive to
make a high grade if part of it is taken
from you by “authority” and given to
someone else ?
Second, the less productive pupils—
a majority in school as elsewhere—
would, for a time, ilfe relieved of the
necessity to study or to produce. This
socialist-communist system would con­tinue
until the high producers had sunk
—or had been driven down—to the
level of the low producers. At that
point, in order for anyone to survive,
the “authority” would have no alterna­tive
but to begin a system of compulsory
labor and punishments against even the
low producers. They, of course, would
then complain bitterly, but without un­derstanding.
Finally I return the discussion to the
ideas of freedom and enterprise—the
market economy—where each* person has
freedom of choice, and is responsible for
bis owm decisions and welfare.
^Gratifying]}’ enough, most of my pu­pils
then understand what I mean when
I explain that socialism—even in a dem­ocracy—
will eventually result in a liv­ing-
death for all except the “authorities”
and a few of their favorite lackeys.

DAWN BETTERLY
From Danesville, Michigan comes a
girl with dark blonde hair and hazel
eyes, whose name is Dawn Betterly.
She appears in the mind of many
when they remember something they
have forgotten—as it begins to “Dawn”
on their minds.
Dawn is a graduate of ’46 from Danes­ville
High School. After graduating
from high school, she spent one year of
study at Huntington College and one
summer term at Michigan State College.
She then taught one year in a rural
school near Weberville, Michigan.
Returning to Huntington in 1949, she
has remained with us for three years
and is now one of the seniors of ’51.
She plans to be a commercial teacher
after graduating in June.
Dawn is the president of Zeta and is
doing a fine job. Her hobbies are piano
playing, crocheting, knitting and cook­ing.
Being head waitress in the dining hall,
you see her busy supervising the service
for every meal. The fellows have to
admit the meal tastes better when serv­ed
with a cheerful smile.
) MILDRED KUHN
Mildred Kuhn is one of the many who
come to Huntington College from the
rolling hills of Pennsylvania.
In her youthful days she has tramped
over the ground where the major battles
of the "Civil War were fought.
She is a graduate of Waynesbar, Pa.,
High School. Coming to Huntington
College in 1944, she took a two-year
Bible course. She then worked for Miss
Hagebloom in the W. M. A. Office from
1945 until 1947.
Receiving a missionary call to Africa,
she returned to school and is studying
the course of Elementary Education.
Besides school work and student
teaching, this senior of ’51 works at the
information desk. So if you see a bru­nette
with brown eyes and a cheerful
smile giving out information, that’s
'Mid,” as most of us know her.
Mid is a participant in Zeta, Clericus
and Gospel Volunteers, and has been a
member of the Student Council. Her
hobbies are sewing and crocheting.
Mid has 'been in Huntington for six
years. 'She says she hates to leave the
good old “Alma Mater.”
LULA KEEFER
A five-foot, blue-eyed blonde who will
be leaving us this Spring is Lula Keef­er
from Chambersburg, Pa. She will re­ceive
a three-year Bible Diploma. She
has no definite plans yet where she will
be doing missionary work, but wherever
it is we wish her success.
She attended the Chambersburg High
School and later entered the York School
of Beauty Culture in York, Pa. Before
coming to Huntington College, she
clerked in a store. She must like elerk-ipg
since she spends Saturdays at Wool-worth's
in Huntington, plus working
PRESENT
several hours in the kitchen each day.
Lula is a member of Dr. Meadows’
church in Chambersburg. She is an
active person in Clericus.
Lula has no favorite song hut she
likes them all. Her favorite sport is
swimming and her hobbies are sewing
and reading. She is sure that she will
miss her dear college when she leaves.
CARL EDWARD SEELY
Carl Edward Seely ("Doc” to you)
was born in the city of Huntington in
the year one thousand nine hundred
twenty-five. He was the third child and
youngest son of Dr. Seely, Dentist.
Doc, or “Cod” as he was known in
those days due to his indulgence in cod
liver oil, was a member of the Riley
Poets basketball team. Doc was also in­terested
in boxing, after his father pre­sented
him) with a set of gloves on
Christmas, and had a small arena in his
basement. The gloves ,ntere Doc’s so he
was crowned boxing champ of the neigh­borhood.
In 1939 Doc started his high s hool
education at H. H. S. He was one of
the very few frosh to play varsity ball.
He produced an excellent record in foot­ball
for the next two years, but spent
most of his senior year on the bench
due to a knee injury. In high school he
also belonged to the “H” Club, Student
Council, Hi-Y, and was a class officer.
Doc graduated in 1943. In 1944 he en­rolled
at Indiana Central and was there
when called into the service in 1944.
Upon his discharge, “Doc” enrolled
in Huntington and is now a senior. He
is still single (Girls, pay attention) and
intends to teach in an elementary school
even though he is qualified to teach in
high school.
Good Advice Given in R. I.
Address
“Nothing determines the degree of
success in courtship and marriage
more than emotional maturity,” said
Dr. Vera Behrendt in a lecture on
“Marriage and Courtship” at Brown
University.
Dr. Behrendt gave some criteria for
judging whether or not a person is
emotionally mature. The ability to
weigh the value of “long time gold
against immediate satisfaction” was
said to be important in this respect.
Listed as lacking this virtue are those
students who read a mystery novel the
night before an important exam. They
neglect the fact that getting a high
grade on the exam would afford more
long lasting satisfaction.
“The capability to give affection and
love to another individual” was men­tioned
as another criterion. The emo­tionally
immature person shies away
from making any deep emotional at­tachments.
In a girl, she said, this
tendency manifests itself in the form
of collecting boy friends much as an
Indian collects scalps, while boys who
always try to date a much sought-after
girl also exhibit this insecurity born
of immaturity.
Another important criterion of emo­tional
maturity is that of various types
of emotional response, the lack of
which is shown in the child’s temper
tantrums. A shortcoming in the adult
results in the over-aggressive person
who lacks control and the person who
controls himself to too great a degree,
the over-sweet individual.

A pancake and sausage supper was
held by the Huntington College Auxil­iary
on February 16 at 6 p. nr, The
ladies were fortunate in having most
of the pancake flour and sausage donated
to them along with the milk. The ladies
cleared approximately $53 on the supper
and are planning to use that money
along with more to place water coolers
in Memorial Hall. They have just fin­ished
buying tables and chairs for the
dining hall and want to start immedi­ately
on the coolers. This organization
has meant many thousands of dollars to

affair with that beautiful female bat.
but i think ill tell about that some
other time and relate to you now the
sad story of herman. herman, as you
know, was the highly intelligent fly
who was acting as day reporter for me.
it was only the other day he flew up
here to my office with some choice
information, i had gone out on an
errand and had left one of my many
cousins to watch the office, what hap­pened
i might have expeced since
webster defines us bats as; 2flying, in­sectivorous
mammals2. my halfwit
cousin cheerfully ate one of the great­est
intellects for bis size the world has
ever known, alas, poor herman, i knew
him well, ah, but the show must go on.
i ve noticed that the college bell has
been ringing more often lately than
it did during the fall, it s clangor does-n

we re usually wide-awake at night any­way.
the average inhabitant of our
colony up here is an ardent h. c. rooter
we often go to games but stay up in
the rafters for fear of frightening the
ladies in the crowd, occasionally,

to discourage such behavior but ado-lecnts

CLERICUS MEETS
WITH NEW MEMBERS
Cleriens met in the Public Relations
Office February 22. The business meet­ing
was conducted by the vice-president,
Walter Burkholder. Several new mem­bers
were added to the Active Member­ship
roll and several names were sub­mitted
for membership.
Elizabeth Runafield led the group in
singing “I Love to Tell the Story” with
Mary Chapman accompanying her at
the piano.
Devotions were led by Mildred Kuhn,
who read Romans 10:10-21, and Floy
Mulkey led in prayer.
The Program Chairman, Mary Chap­man,
introduced the speaker's of the
evening.
Alvin Boggs spoke to them concern­ing
the "Physical Aspects of the Mis­sionary.”
He said, “Your physical well­being
may differ depending upon the
place where you may go as a mission­ary,
but regardless of where you may
lie, every Christian should be a mission­ary.
No matter how zealous and healthy
you may be, the missionary should use
some common sense in his work.”
“Social Preparation” was presented by
Earl Ensminger, who said that this pre­paration
was just as important as re­ligious
and academic preparation. We
should study the Social and Religious
customs of the people before we go that
we might adjust ourselves to their cus­toms.
We must be able to get along,
with people and see the other fellow’s
viewpoint, and we cannot shove o.ur
customs upon them, we must teach them.
Rev. Carlson presented the “Material
Aspects.” He said that it was import­ant
to have a Bible with type that was
easy to read, choice devotional material,
and clothing and personal supplies. He
suggested that it was advisable not to
take anything we didn’t need and not
to plan too much on our material things
and then leave out the Holy Spirit’s
Guidance. “If the Lord has called you,
respond to the call, let God plan things,”
he said.
A period of questions and discussion
followed the very informative and in­teresting
program concerning the prac­tical
aspects of the missionary’s work
that are altogether too much neglected
in the task of becoming a missionary.

A PICTURE OF
YOUR STUDENT
COUNCIL
Perhaps the least publicized organiza­tion
on the campus this year is your
student council. Yet it seems that this
organization is the most active of all.
Without this organization, which tends
to make our administration more demo-crati.,
our college could not possibly
be so efficient as it is now, and certain­ly
life on campus would be far less in­teresting.
Student Council has its regular meet-
_ ings ou Tuesday evenings at 8:00 p. in.
In these meetings the members discuss
the problems which arise on the campus
and act on them according to the con­stitution
and the desired will of tile
student body as a whole. Like any other
democratic organization, the council and
its members are dependent upon the
knowledge of your will concerning their
action. It is therefore your duty as a
member of the student union to contact
your representatives to the council and
let them know your views.
After each meeting you will find a
complete outline of the proceedings of
the meeting posted on the front hall
bulletin board. These outlines are
posted for your benefit and you could
well benefit by reading them.
Some of the activities for which the
council and its members have been re­sponsible
this year are: the organiza­tion
of the homecoming activities, the
organized labor campaign which gave
us our paved drive, the Christmas party
for the underprivileged children, and
a number of others. The Friday assem­bly
programs are given in their entire-ity
to the council. Two members of the
council are responsible for each month
of assemblies. If you are not satisfied
with these programs, it is your privilege
to offer suggestions to those members in
charge for the month.
Perhaps the greatest attribute to the
council this year is the president, George
Hall. George has worked hard for the
council and, as things usually go, has
received relatively little credit for all of
his fine effort. We, the members of the
council and the student union which we
represent, applaud you for your splendid
work so far this year, George. We’ll do
our best to help you maike our campus
a more efficient and enjoyable one.

SAPLINGS
The Saplings were forced to disband
this second semester when Coach Lon­genbaugh
saw the need of moving sev­eral
of the men up to the Foresters. In
addition to Balliet, Kasten, Don Ham­mel,
Wiles and Wehr who were moved
to the Foresters, Dal Hammel, Arm­strong
and Stoffel composed the “B”
team.

Campus Chatter
If you happen to notice any sign of
intoxication among H. C. students,
please notify Neil Wolfe. His stockpile
of radiator anti-freeze has been slowly
but steadily dwindling.
A new branch has appeared on the
Cherry tree. Congratulations. Uncle
Herb.
Banquets always reveal interesting
tilings. Some banquets are the start of
budding romances; so, let’s look into the
last one—the Washington Banquet.
Mary Chapman's corsage was quite
unique. It’s the only one I heard of
that contained a diamond. Mary claim­ed
that the flowers became so cold in
the refrigerator that they grew ice.
Last weekend marked a high spot for
George Gross. Was it just a coinci­dence
that Annabelle was away the
weekend that Ethel decided to visit the
campus?
Gene Martin seemed to appreciate the
girls from Grand Rapids, too. Janet’s
pretty nice, isn’t she, Gene?
Duane Tucker seems to think, the
girls are running after hint. We can’t
decide who’s running or which way
they’re running. After all, it may be
the other way.
Janet Stough’s interests’ have turned
from Detroit to the Army. We wish
you luck, Janet, and hope that that ex­pected
discharge comes through soon.
This disease that’s invading the cam­pus
must be very contagious, it's even
affecting the faculty now. Congratula­tions,
Mr. Zurcher. The students wish
you hearty good luck.
Dallas Keck has an extra smile on
his face lately. It might be because of
"Junior.” Seriously, Dallas has become
the proud father of. a baby boy, Dallas
Wynn.
STORKLAND NEWS
TWILA SHISLER
Have you noticed a strange bird flying
around here lately? Well, stop wonder­ing,
for it is the stork !
The first stop was at Ed Cherring-ton’s.
On .January 22, he left a 9 pound
bouncing baby boy named Eugene Ed­win.
Lewis comes to me that the whole
ordeal was so much for Ed that he was
just too exhausted to even hear the
baby cry at night. Cheer up, Ed. They
say they haven’t lost a father yet.
The stork didn’t miss the faculty this
trip, for on January 31, 8 pound 5
ounce Ronald Lee was added to the
Coach Leiman household. Huntington
College's star fullback of 1979.
February 16 found Dallas Keck pac­ing
the hospital corridor awaiting the
arrival of 8 pound 12 ounce Dallas
Wynn. What-? Another boy! The
stork must be in a rut.
Congratulations to the proud parents
from the H. C. student body.
Washington Banquet
(Continued from page 1)
Dr. Becker, in closing, said that the
college is again facing a decreased en­rollment.
He listed three main causes
for this, namely, young men leaving for
the armed forces, rising operation costs,
and heavily taxed friends who are con­tributing
to the college’s support. The
solution may be found in the small gifts
of many, Dr. Becker stated, and went
on to. assure his hearers that the col­lege
will face its problems and not re­treat
from them.
The Banquet was officially closed
with the singing of the Alma Mater.
The occasion was made colorful by
the untiring wonk of Mrs. Hudson and
her Pallete Guild members. Strips of
red and blue crepe paper were inter­woven
on lattice for a background to the
speakers’ table. Tapers, in the colors
of our country afforded light for the
dinner, and place mats on red and
blue squares, with contrasting liberty
bells added to the color. The programs,
done in blue on white, and the nut cups
built on stars were also part of the
decorations.
To further add to the colors of the
decorations, the women guests were at;
tired in formals and corsages, .with their
male escorts complete with boutonniere.

BIRTHDAYS OF THE
GREAT
COMMEMORATED
AT RECENT
ZETA MEETING
The February meeting of Zeta was
held Monday evening, February 19, at
8 p. m in Zeta Hall. In beeping with
the theme commemorating Lincoln and
Washington’s birthdays, Nancy Hull led
the group in some group singing, with
Ruth Becker accompanying on the
piano. Mildred Kuhn gave a reading
on Lincoln, and a one-act play was pre­sented.
Those participating in the play
were Sandy Leedy, Esther Bean, Ruby
Parent, Nancy Hull and Dawn Betterly.
To close the program portion of the
meeting Ruth Becker played several
patriotic numbers on the piano.
The business meeting was then open­ed
by President Dawn Betterly, who
directed the discussion along the thought
of a possible union with the Music
Club and the Palette Guild, forming a
newt organization, A Fine Arts Club. No
final action was taken on the matter,
Miss Betterly reports, but final action
is to be taken at a special ailed meet­ing
soon. Dawn also reported a “better
than average” attendance at this meet­ing.
CAMPUS PLAYHOUSE
HAS DRESS
REHEARSAL
The program of the March 1st meet­ing
of Campus Playhouse was very in­teresting,
according to all reports. It
doubled as a dress rehearsal for the one-act
comedy, “Too Much Salt.”
A .different idea was then tried. In­dividual
members entertained the group
with pantomimes. These proved very
entertaining and enlightening. Several
pantomimes were then given by the
group. They were based on some famil­iar
fairy tales.
It was reported in the business meet­ing
that reading of plays for the spring
production has begun.
The cast of “Too Much Salt” is plan­ning
to try an experiment in central
staging. This places the audience on all
sides of the playing stage. This is the
first time they have tried such an idea
and it is reported that they will have
many problems to solve in connection
with it.

Playing their third game in four
nights, the Foresters journeyed to Terre
Haute. Ind., to engage Rose Poly for
their second meeting of the year. The
Rose Poly Field House had a regulation
college floor and. as a result, the added
length and the lack of rest, soon wore
the Foresters down. The first half
found the teams playing on even terms
but the Foresters were never able to
come any closer than eight points in the
last half.

N.C.’S SPORT SHORTS
There has been some question as to
why there have not been any programs
at the home basketball games this se­mester.
The Varsity Club had the re­sponsibility
of seeing that such pro­grams
were printed, but for some reason
the number of spectators dwindled to
the point where the time, money, and
xwork it took to print the programs did
not equal the services they were doing.
As a result, the programs ceased to be
printed ... I see where .Tune Brown
is playing basketball with a W.A.F.
team in San Antonio, Texas. June was
a student here at H. C. last year . . .
We are all glad to see 'that the opera­tion
on Curly McDowell's knee has
been successful. Curly had the opera­tion
done between semesters but he is
already doing a little running . . .
The Foresters have their hitting over
.310 in practically all their games which
is a high enough percentage to win prac­tically
any ball game. Could it be that
the Foresters didn’t shoot enough in
their ball games? . . . The Migration
Game’at Indiana Tech 'was a success.
I do not see why the attendance at the
home games could not have been as
large as the one at Indiana Tech. I
realize that there are quite a few stu­dents
working, but they could have come
to the Saturday night games at least. It
is mighty discouraging to thW team and
the yell-leaders who practice hard to
have to perform before a handful of
students. A school dies when its School
Spirit dies. Let’s keep H. C. ALIVE!
. . . Has everybody heard about Wrong-
Way Stites? In the Rose Poly game
Elmo threw in a basket for Rose Poly.
Is it possible that Huntington College
has a scandel? I don’t thing so, Elm
just lost his head.
FORESTERS TO PLAY
POST SEASON GAMES
The Foresters have two post-season
games scheduled. The first game, spon­sored
by the WjA.A. and with Camp
Atterbury furnishing the opposition, was
played on March 3. Details of this
game will be in the, next issue. The
second game is the annual Varsity-
Alumni Game sponsored by the Varsity
Club. No date has been set for this
game yet.
Indiana Tech at the Armory in Fort
Wayne on February 24. The game was
played before a large crowd of Hunting-ton
rooters who had migrated to Fort
Wayne. With the large crowd yelling

THE GREEN HORNETS
Girls basketball was reorganized this
year under the direction of Coach Lei-man
after being disbanded for one year.
The first game played this year was
played with Taylor at Taylor. The in­experienced
Huntington team was de­feated
by the tall Trojannets. Murn
Ziegler was the high scorer for the
Hornets. The second game was played
in the gym with Manchester who finally
won the game by three points, the score
being 53 to 56. Murn Ziegler was again
high point getter as she scored 42 of the
53 points. The third game of the season
found the Hornets playing a return
game with Manchester at Manchester.
They were able; to hold Ziegler to 22
points as they scored a 42-47 victory.
Saturday, February 17, the Hornets met
the girls from Taylor in a return en­gagement
to close their season. The Tro­jannets
threw qp a -heavy defense around
Ziegler and was able to halt the high
scoring Hornet and walk away with a
51-37 victory. The Hornets finished the
season with a record of four straight
defeats. The girls had a small but
scrappy team but like the Foresters
were not able to scpre enough points
to be on the winning end. Murn Ziegler
led the Hornets in scoring this year and
was followed by Marty Lawver.

THE HUNTINGTONIAN
Vol. 37 Huntington College. Huntington, Indiana. March 5, 1951 No. 2
Rev. Hopkins Speaks at Banquet
TO GLACIER
NATIONAL PARK
VIA “SKY CRIB”
Mountain climbing can be easy if
you’re sitting back and watching it. This
was only one of the many interesting
experiences enjoyed by armchair natural­ists
of the Huntington area who braved
a considerable amount of nature in the
form -of wind and rain on Tuesday
'evening, February 20, to congregate in
Davis Hall for Howard Cleaves’ all-color
travelogue, “By Sky Crib to Glacier.”
the third in this season’s series of five
Audubon Screen Tours.
In the summer of 1948 Mr. Cleaves,
an outdoor photographer of Staten
Island, New York, a place as far remote
from the scenes of Tuesday evening’s
Screen Tour as the Republicans have
been from the White House, decided
since his son Henderson had just grad­uated
from high school and had not yet
been taken on a long promised trip to
some of our nation’s scenic points of
interest, that this matter had better be
taken care of before the son departed
on his own into the cruel world. The
itinerary was through Glacier and Yel­lowstone
National Parkis, and the Grand
Teton Mountains ; the result: the above-mentioned
travelogue.
The “skiy crib” in question is not a
baby bed for stars. This arrangement,
highly recommended by Mr. Cleaves for
saving hotel bills, consists instead of a
Beauty-Rest mattress, complete with
pup tent, all mounted on top of a car.
Each night when Cleaves & Son be­came
tired of traveling, they merely got
out of their car and “moved upstairs”
Pullman style. If curiosity is really
what kills cats, the “sky crib” left be­hind
a sizeable trail of dead mouse-catchers
as it accompanied Mr. Cleaves
and Henderson to their first stop, Gla­cier
National Park, where they went on
a conducted tour of this storehouse of
natural beauty with about thirty others,
capturing their explorations on film for
the benefit of Audubon *audiences. Next
to come under the scrutinizing lens of
the Cleaves’ camera were Yellowstone
National Park and the Grand Teton
Mountains, and audiences seeing the
pictures feel almost as if they were
there in person.
Homeward bound once again, Howard
and Henderson Cleaves took one of their
most unique shots closer to home, in
Pennsylvania, where they came upon
some day-old-bread scalpers doing a
land-office tourist trade on a bridge.
Tourists were snatching the stuff at the
rate of two loaves for a quarter in order
to satisfy the desires of seemingly mil­lions
of panhandling fish below.
Two more Audubon Screen Tours re­main
in this season for Huntington
College- Tickets for these tours, the
least expensive form of travel found
anywhere, are in charge of Prof. Muck
and Prof. Pfister.

MEMORIAL HALL
PRESENTS CONCERT
After a strenuous 1 a. nr. rehearsal
on Friday, February 16, the rough and
ready musicians and singers of Wright
Memorial Hall were ready and more
than anxious to present their annual
“Hour of Harm” later that same morn­ing
in Davis Hall.
The orchestra for this momentous mu­sical
event was the no-doubt noted Hunt­ington
College Bum and Bugle Corps,
directed with gusto and abandon by a
musician With years of experience direct­ing
traffic on his grade school patrol,
and consisting of Paul Sell and Carroll
Fogwell, trumpets; Ray Sommer and
Herb Cassel, trombones; Bill Boswell
(who arrived late), goose horn; and
Odell Carlisle, bass hatbox.
Opening the program with a bang
were Don Betterly, Russ Birdsall. Le­roy
Sharp and Bill Couch, the boys of
the U. S. Male Quartet, sometimes re­ferred
to as the Choral Reefers, who
rendered at the tops of their lungs the
contemporary American composition,
“The College Gang.”
Also featured were Digger & Gene,
performing with extraordinary virtuos­ity
on the Hawaiian Electric suitcases,
and sounding very much like Les Paul.
William and his icky ukulele shared
the spotlight with Paul and his magic
mandolin, and vocalist .Tames Dempsey
performed the spirited spiritual, “Shad-rack.”
The M. C.’s job was ably man­handled
by Leroy Sharp.
Probably the biggest surprise in the
whole clambake came when it all ended
in a serious note, with the audience ris­ing
and singing the National Anthem
and the Alma Mater, the latter illus­trated
with color slides taken on campus
by Paul Sell.
It was suggested that the boys of the
dorm pool their talent more often. The
pool suggested was the Wabash River.
STATE OFFICIALS
INSPECT H. C.
On February 20, 1951, Huntington
College was inspected. The state in­spectors
came about 10 a. m. and spent
several hours looking over the school.
We don’t have any report yet as to how
things looked, but of course we hope for
the best.
EDDIE RETURNS FOR
VISIT
CpI. Ed Gordon was in Huntington
from February 17 to the 25th, visiting
friends and relatives. We were glad
he was able to attend the annual Wash­ington
Banquet on February 23rd.
accompanied Kenny Thornell for his
cornet' solo. Mrs. Robert Paine gave a
reading appropriate for the occasion,
concerning George Washington and his
hatchet.
The College Quartette, composed of
William Couch, Leroy Sharp, Russell
Birdsall and Don Betterly sang two
numbers. The first, “Battle Hymn of
the Republic,” featured Jim Dempsey on
the solo work, with Bert Lange and
Prof. Smith at the pianos. Their sec­ond
number was “This is My Country.”
The four Impromptu Speeches, pre­pared
and submitted by college students,
included: Ruth Becker, speaking on
“Liberty and Freedom,” Sam Kaiser on
“The Bell I Want to Be,” Elizabeth
Rumfield on “What the Liberty Bell
/Means to Me as a Christian,” and Alvin
Boggs on “Church Bells and Liberty
Bells.”
Galen Colclesser, Public Relations Di­rector
for the college, next introduced
the speaker, whom he came to know
during World War II. Rev. Hopkins
was at that time Chaplain Hopkins.
Mrs. Colclesser sang “God Bless Am­erica,”
at the close of the address of
the evening, accompanied by Mrs. Helen
Thomas Bucher.

KOREA WAR
KEY TOPIC OF
REV. HOPKINS
“If we settle for less than the Man­churian
border. Asia is lost to Commu­nism.
and Russia is encouraged to start
war. We must do it. too. without drop­ping
an A-bomb on Chinese soil.” These
words were included in the address of
the Rev. Garland Evans Hopkins,
speaker for the Washington Banquet,
held last Friday evening, February 23.
The Banquet, a traditional event for
faculty and students of the college, took
place this year in the Masonic Temple.
Rev. Hopkins further declared, “We
must take whatever steps necessary to
assure that Korea be free and united.”
Rev. Hopkins has traveled into six com­munist
countries, into most of the dem­ocracies
of the world, into Fascist Spain,
and into the totalitarian countries of the
Near East since the War. ’Frequently he
is called into consultation by the State
Department.
Next in importance after Korea’s free­dom
and union, asserts The Rev. Mr.
Hopkins, is the severing of Communist
China’s ruler, Mao, from Russia. Gen­eral
Li, who became Chiang-Kai-shek's
legal successor is the legitimate ruler,
the speaker said, and neither Mao nor
Chiang.
A Marshall Plan for Asia, many times
over the proposed $35,000,000 must be
announced, according to Hopkins, to as­sure
the Asiatics that we as Americans
and as Christians are interested in them.
In further discussion of the Chinese
question, Rev. Hopkins said that today
there are three Chinas—Commiunist
China, Nationalist China, and Walter
Judd’s China. Judd is the son of mis­sionaries
. in China, himself a former
medi al missionary, and now a Con­gressman
from Minnesota, critical of
Secretary of State Dean Acheson’s
China policy.
Convinced by his travels, Rev- Hop­kins
assured his hearers that the Ameri­can
experiment ' has been a great suc­cess.
Even our minorities are better off
here in America than they would be
anywhere else in the world. To use his
own words, “no .minority in America of
any size would be advantaged one bit
elsewhere in the world. Minorities in-
America have more rights and privileges
and more security than minority groups
in any other country.” He hastened to
emphasize, however, that before com­plete
justice may be established for all
minorities, America has a large task
before her, and declared that segrega­tion
is not democratic, and certainly not
Christian,

OUR STRENGTH
DR. W. P. MUSGRAVE
The strength of any institution comes from the character of its members and
the quality of its product. This is particularly true of the Christian College. Based
upon the ideals of Christ and His ethical practices, such a college must meet the
needs of individuals for high quality in education plus the moral and spiritual
standards which make up the Christian life.
No area of activity may go untouched by *these principles, if the Christian
College community is to maintain its high calling. Prayer and the other forms of
worship will count for little, if teachers and students do not carry out their daily
tasks as Christians. This means that they put forth their best efforts in study, in
cooperative action, and in worship.
A college may be said to be a community of experienced and inexperienced
students. Their concern is to arrive at the truth and its application to human re­quirements.
They are seriously seeking answers to such questions as:
(1) What in general is being said and done?
(2) How in particular is it being said and done?
(3) Is it true?
(4) What of it?
If we discover that what is said is not true, them we need go no further with it:
but, if it is found to be true, then we must face our fourth question. Facts seldom
come to us without some interpretation, explicit or implied.
In the Christian College these questions must receive the Christian answer.
Teachers and students bear the responsibility of intellectual and spiritual^prepara-tion
before meeting the classroom situation. The Christian approach will bring
, forth Christian results.
Huntington College is attempting to develop and maintain the Christ-centered
program. The success of this enterprise depends upon the spiritual dedication of
every member of the institution and the aid which comes from the divine. In these
times of critical decision Christian Life Emphasis is a year-around essential re­quirement
in training and leadership. Let us trust God 'for strength, remembering
that He is depending on us.
Three days after the
day before yesterday.
Dear Moron,
I received your letter which you never
wrote to me, so I sat down pencil in
hand to write you a letter on my type­writer.
I don’t know where I lived before I
moved to where I live now. When you
come to see me ask anyone where 1 live,
as no one knows.
I am so sorry we are so far together,
and wish we Could be closer apart.
We are having more weather this
year than last. We had a snow storm
here tomorrow and it covered the ground
so deep you could see the railroad
tracks.
Your Aunt Mabie is in bed with the
measels, they locked her in her room
but she broke out anyway.
My Aunt Heater died yesterday and
is doing nicely. Hope you are the
same.
Cousin Edgar is near death’s door
and we are hoping the doctor can pull
him through.
Our good- friends Ida and Sherman
got married next Wednesday. They
would have been married before last
month if Liz’s father had not been out
of work. I don’t know where they are
going to live but if you find out first
I'll let you know.
I started up to see you the other day
and I saw a sign that said “This Will
Take you to Huntington College,” so I
got on that sign and sat for hours and
the thing didn’t move an inch.
I am mailing your eoat by express,
so I cut off the buttons to make it light­er
(they’re in the right hand pocket on
the left hand side). If you don’t get
this let me know and I’ll mail it.
As you thought.
A Moron.
P. S. I could have sent you the six
dollars I owe you but I didn't think of
it until I sealed the envelope.
Moron.
LET GO
AND LET GOD
By Herbert Cherry
We read over in the book of Psalms
in the thirty-seventh chapter and the
fifth verse these words: “Commit thy
way unto the Lord, trust also in him,
and he shall bring it to pass.”
It is one thing to be. willing to take
the Lord, to intend to take the Lord,
to be trying to take the Lord for the
blessing you need; but it ,is quite an­other
thing to take the Lord and count
it done; this is committal. It is to
drop your letter into the postoffice box,
and not hold onto it by the corner, but
let it go and leave the responsibility of
its delivery with the authorities. We
find that all too often we are unwilling
to commit our all to the Lord, but w,e
like to hang on and not completely sur­render
and commit our life and our
way to the Lord. There is real joy
and happiness for those who are willing
to let go and let God have his way.
We find now that committal is only
the first step. There is another step
for us to take which we call trust. Many
people are simply trying but not trust­ing
and there is no more help in that
than in the faint efforts of the poor
little kitten which has fallen into a well,
and was in the process of being rescued.
The farmer had heard its pitiful cries
and noticed that it had climbed out of
the water and was hanging onto a ledge
in the brick wall. He gently dropped
the bucket down beneath it and tried
to induce it to drop in, but the kitten
simply reached out its little paws and
then' drew them back timorously, and
cried and cried again in its helplessness
and despair. This was all in vain. The
kitten could not be rescued until it
would let go of the ledge and commit
itself to the bucket. The struggle lasted
a long while until at last, tired and
ready to fall, it ventured; there was
a little plunge, and the farmer knew
by the added weight that the refugee
was safely caught, and it was a small
matter now to land his burden on solid
ground.
Exactly so we hesitate and struggle,
until at last, tired, we just let go, and
then it is easy for God to do something
for us. The prayer of faith is a trans­action
which you must settle at a defin­ite
moment and then we must trust him.
As helpless as a child ,who clings
Fast to his father’s arm,
And easts his weakness on the strength,
That keeps him safe from harm
So I, my Father, cling to thee,
And thus I every hour
Would link my earthly feebleness
To Thy Almightly Power.
Reasons Why I Swear
1. It pleases mother so much.
2. It is a fine mark of manliness.
3. It proves I have self-control.
4. It indicates how clearly my mind
operates.
5. It makes my conversation so
pleasing to everybody.
6. It leaves no doubt in anyone’s
mind as to my good breeding.
7. It impresses people that I have
more than ordinary education.
8. It is an unmistakable sign of cul­ture
and refinement.
9. It makes me a very desirable
personality among women and children
and in respectable society.
10. It is my way of honoring God,
Who said, “Thou shalt not take the
name of the Lord thy God in vain.”
—From a Church Calendar
Everyone today needs to know more
about the Socialist-Communist idea of
taking “from one according to his abil­ity,”
and giving “to each according to
his need.” One teacher gives the fol­lowing
lesson in Socialism:
When one of the brighter or harder-wonking
pupils makes a grade of 95 on
a test, I suggest that I take away 20
points and give them to a student who
has made only 55 points on his test.
Thus each would contribute according
to his ability and—since both would
have a passing mark—each would re­ceive
according to his need. After I
have juggled the grades of all the other
pupils in this fashion, the result is
usually a “common ownership” grade of
between 75 and 80—the minimum need­ed
for passing, or for survival. * Then
I speculate with the pupils as to the
probable results if I actually used the
socialistic theory for grading papers.
First, the highly productive pupils—
and they are always a minority in school
as well as in life—would soon lose all
incentive for producing. Why strive to
make a high grade if part of it is taken
from you by “authority” and given to
someone else ?
Second, the less productive pupils—
a majority in school as elsewhere—
would, for a time, ilfe relieved of the
necessity to study or to produce. This
socialist-communist system would con­tinue
until the high producers had sunk
—or had been driven down—to the
level of the low producers. At that
point, in order for anyone to survive,
the “authority” would have no alterna­tive
but to begin a system of compulsory
labor and punishments against even the
low producers. They, of course, would
then complain bitterly, but without un­derstanding.
Finally I return the discussion to the
ideas of freedom and enterprise—the
market economy—where each* person has
freedom of choice, and is responsible for
bis owm decisions and welfare.
^Gratifying]}’ enough, most of my pu­pils
then understand what I mean when
I explain that socialism—even in a dem­ocracy—
will eventually result in a liv­ing-
death for all except the “authorities”
and a few of their favorite lackeys.

DAWN BETTERLY
From Danesville, Michigan comes a
girl with dark blonde hair and hazel
eyes, whose name is Dawn Betterly.
She appears in the mind of many
when they remember something they
have forgotten—as it begins to “Dawn”
on their minds.
Dawn is a graduate of ’46 from Danes­ville
High School. After graduating
from high school, she spent one year of
study at Huntington College and one
summer term at Michigan State College.
She then taught one year in a rural
school near Weberville, Michigan.
Returning to Huntington in 1949, she
has remained with us for three years
and is now one of the seniors of ’51.
She plans to be a commercial teacher
after graduating in June.
Dawn is the president of Zeta and is
doing a fine job. Her hobbies are piano
playing, crocheting, knitting and cook­ing.
Being head waitress in the dining hall,
you see her busy supervising the service
for every meal. The fellows have to
admit the meal tastes better when serv­ed
with a cheerful smile.
) MILDRED KUHN
Mildred Kuhn is one of the many who
come to Huntington College from the
rolling hills of Pennsylvania.
In her youthful days she has tramped
over the ground where the major battles
of the "Civil War were fought.
She is a graduate of Waynesbar, Pa.,
High School. Coming to Huntington
College in 1944, she took a two-year
Bible course. She then worked for Miss
Hagebloom in the W. M. A. Office from
1945 until 1947.
Receiving a missionary call to Africa,
she returned to school and is studying
the course of Elementary Education.
Besides school work and student
teaching, this senior of ’51 works at the
information desk. So if you see a bru­nette
with brown eyes and a cheerful
smile giving out information, that’s
'Mid,” as most of us know her.
Mid is a participant in Zeta, Clericus
and Gospel Volunteers, and has been a
member of the Student Council. Her
hobbies are sewing and crocheting.
Mid has 'been in Huntington for six
years. 'She says she hates to leave the
good old “Alma Mater.”
LULA KEEFER
A five-foot, blue-eyed blonde who will
be leaving us this Spring is Lula Keef­er
from Chambersburg, Pa. She will re­ceive
a three-year Bible Diploma. She
has no definite plans yet where she will
be doing missionary work, but wherever
it is we wish her success.
She attended the Chambersburg High
School and later entered the York School
of Beauty Culture in York, Pa. Before
coming to Huntington College, she
clerked in a store. She must like elerk-ipg
since she spends Saturdays at Wool-worth's
in Huntington, plus working
PRESENT
several hours in the kitchen each day.
Lula is a member of Dr. Meadows’
church in Chambersburg. She is an
active person in Clericus.
Lula has no favorite song hut she
likes them all. Her favorite sport is
swimming and her hobbies are sewing
and reading. She is sure that she will
miss her dear college when she leaves.
CARL EDWARD SEELY
Carl Edward Seely ("Doc” to you)
was born in the city of Huntington in
the year one thousand nine hundred
twenty-five. He was the third child and
youngest son of Dr. Seely, Dentist.
Doc, or “Cod” as he was known in
those days due to his indulgence in cod
liver oil, was a member of the Riley
Poets basketball team. Doc was also in­terested
in boxing, after his father pre­sented
him) with a set of gloves on
Christmas, and had a small arena in his
basement. The gloves ,ntere Doc’s so he
was crowned boxing champ of the neigh­borhood.
In 1939 Doc started his high s hool
education at H. H. S. He was one of
the very few frosh to play varsity ball.
He produced an excellent record in foot­ball
for the next two years, but spent
most of his senior year on the bench
due to a knee injury. In high school he
also belonged to the “H” Club, Student
Council, Hi-Y, and was a class officer.
Doc graduated in 1943. In 1944 he en­rolled
at Indiana Central and was there
when called into the service in 1944.
Upon his discharge, “Doc” enrolled
in Huntington and is now a senior. He
is still single (Girls, pay attention) and
intends to teach in an elementary school
even though he is qualified to teach in
high school.
Good Advice Given in R. I.
Address
“Nothing determines the degree of
success in courtship and marriage
more than emotional maturity,” said
Dr. Vera Behrendt in a lecture on
“Marriage and Courtship” at Brown
University.
Dr. Behrendt gave some criteria for
judging whether or not a person is
emotionally mature. The ability to
weigh the value of “long time gold
against immediate satisfaction” was
said to be important in this respect.
Listed as lacking this virtue are those
students who read a mystery novel the
night before an important exam. They
neglect the fact that getting a high
grade on the exam would afford more
long lasting satisfaction.
“The capability to give affection and
love to another individual” was men­tioned
as another criterion. The emo­tionally
immature person shies away
from making any deep emotional at­tachments.
In a girl, she said, this
tendency manifests itself in the form
of collecting boy friends much as an
Indian collects scalps, while boys who
always try to date a much sought-after
girl also exhibit this insecurity born
of immaturity.
Another important criterion of emo­tional
maturity is that of various types
of emotional response, the lack of
which is shown in the child’s temper
tantrums. A shortcoming in the adult
results in the over-aggressive person
who lacks control and the person who
controls himself to too great a degree,
the over-sweet individual.

The Bat’s Belfry
i ve been getting reports through ed­itorial
channels that my lower case
typewriting is rather hard at times to
decipher, besides that, sam tells me
that i am slowly driving both the lino*

it though, i still haven t figured out a
workable system whereby i can hit the

i have tried to get others

but none will, so i think they they are

CLERICUS MEETS
WITH NEW MEMBERS
Cleriens met in the Public Relations
Office February 22. The business meet­ing
was conducted by the vice-president,
Walter Burkholder. Several new mem­bers
were added to the Active Member­ship
roll and several names were sub­mitted
for membership.
Elizabeth Runafield led the group in
singing “I Love to Tell the Story” with
Mary Chapman accompanying her at
the piano.
Devotions were led by Mildred Kuhn,
who read Romans 10:10-21, and Floy
Mulkey led in prayer.
The Program Chairman, Mary Chap­man,
introduced the speaker's of the
evening.
Alvin Boggs spoke to them concern­ing
the "Physical Aspects of the Mis­sionary.”
He said, “Your physical well­being
may differ depending upon the
place where you may go as a mission­ary,
but regardless of where you may
lie, every Christian should be a mission­ary.
No matter how zealous and healthy
you may be, the missionary should use
some common sense in his work.”
“Social Preparation” was presented by
Earl Ensminger, who said that this pre­paration
was just as important as re­ligious
and academic preparation. We
should study the Social and Religious
customs of the people before we go that
we might adjust ourselves to their cus­toms.
We must be able to get along,
with people and see the other fellow’s
viewpoint, and we cannot shove o.ur
customs upon them, we must teach them.
Rev. Carlson presented the “Material
Aspects.” He said that it was import­ant
to have a Bible with type that was
easy to read, choice devotional material,
and clothing and personal supplies. He
suggested that it was advisable not to
take anything we didn’t need and not
to plan too much on our material things
and then leave out the Holy Spirit’s
Guidance. “If the Lord has called you,
respond to the call, let God plan things,”
he said.
A period of questions and discussion
followed the very informative and in­teresting
program concerning the prac­tical
aspects of the missionary’s work
that are altogether too much neglected
in the task of becoming a missionary.

A PICTURE OF
YOUR STUDENT
COUNCIL
Perhaps the least publicized organiza­tion
on the campus this year is your
student council. Yet it seems that this
organization is the most active of all.
Without this organization, which tends
to make our administration more demo-crati.,
our college could not possibly
be so efficient as it is now, and certain­ly
life on campus would be far less in­teresting.
Student Council has its regular meet-
_ ings ou Tuesday evenings at 8:00 p. in.
In these meetings the members discuss
the problems which arise on the campus
and act on them according to the con­stitution
and the desired will of tile
student body as a whole. Like any other
democratic organization, the council and
its members are dependent upon the
knowledge of your will concerning their
action. It is therefore your duty as a
member of the student union to contact
your representatives to the council and
let them know your views.
After each meeting you will find a
complete outline of the proceedings of
the meeting posted on the front hall
bulletin board. These outlines are
posted for your benefit and you could
well benefit by reading them.
Some of the activities for which the
council and its members have been re­sponsible
this year are: the organiza­tion
of the homecoming activities, the
organized labor campaign which gave
us our paved drive, the Christmas party
for the underprivileged children, and
a number of others. The Friday assem­bly
programs are given in their entire-ity
to the council. Two members of the
council are responsible for each month
of assemblies. If you are not satisfied
with these programs, it is your privilege
to offer suggestions to those members in
charge for the month.
Perhaps the greatest attribute to the
council this year is the president, George
Hall. George has worked hard for the
council and, as things usually go, has
received relatively little credit for all of
his fine effort. We, the members of the
council and the student union which we
represent, applaud you for your splendid
work so far this year, George. We’ll do
our best to help you maike our campus
a more efficient and enjoyable one.

SAPLINGS
The Saplings were forced to disband
this second semester when Coach Lon­genbaugh
saw the need of moving sev­eral
of the men up to the Foresters. In
addition to Balliet, Kasten, Don Ham­mel,
Wiles and Wehr who were moved
to the Foresters, Dal Hammel, Arm­strong
and Stoffel composed the “B”
team.

Campus Chatter
If you happen to notice any sign of
intoxication among H. C. students,
please notify Neil Wolfe. His stockpile
of radiator anti-freeze has been slowly
but steadily dwindling.
A new branch has appeared on the
Cherry tree. Congratulations. Uncle
Herb.
Banquets always reveal interesting
tilings. Some banquets are the start of
budding romances; so, let’s look into the
last one—the Washington Banquet.
Mary Chapman's corsage was quite
unique. It’s the only one I heard of
that contained a diamond. Mary claim­ed
that the flowers became so cold in
the refrigerator that they grew ice.
Last weekend marked a high spot for
George Gross. Was it just a coinci­dence
that Annabelle was away the
weekend that Ethel decided to visit the
campus?
Gene Martin seemed to appreciate the
girls from Grand Rapids, too. Janet’s
pretty nice, isn’t she, Gene?
Duane Tucker seems to think, the
girls are running after hint. We can’t
decide who’s running or which way
they’re running. After all, it may be
the other way.
Janet Stough’s interests’ have turned
from Detroit to the Army. We wish
you luck, Janet, and hope that that ex­pected
discharge comes through soon.
This disease that’s invading the cam­pus
must be very contagious, it's even
affecting the faculty now. Congratula­tions,
Mr. Zurcher. The students wish
you hearty good luck.
Dallas Keck has an extra smile on
his face lately. It might be because of
"Junior.” Seriously, Dallas has become
the proud father of. a baby boy, Dallas
Wynn.
STORKLAND NEWS
TWILA SHISLER
Have you noticed a strange bird flying
around here lately? Well, stop wonder­ing,
for it is the stork !
The first stop was at Ed Cherring-ton’s.
On .January 22, he left a 9 pound
bouncing baby boy named Eugene Ed­win.
Lewis comes to me that the whole
ordeal was so much for Ed that he was
just too exhausted to even hear the
baby cry at night. Cheer up, Ed. They
say they haven’t lost a father yet.
The stork didn’t miss the faculty this
trip, for on January 31, 8 pound 5
ounce Ronald Lee was added to the
Coach Leiman household. Huntington
College's star fullback of 1979.
February 16 found Dallas Keck pac­ing
the hospital corridor awaiting the
arrival of 8 pound 12 ounce Dallas
Wynn. What-? Another boy! The
stork must be in a rut.
Congratulations to the proud parents
from the H. C. student body.
Washington Banquet
(Continued from page 1)
Dr. Becker, in closing, said that the
college is again facing a decreased en­rollment.
He listed three main causes
for this, namely, young men leaving for
the armed forces, rising operation costs,
and heavily taxed friends who are con­tributing
to the college’s support. The
solution may be found in the small gifts
of many, Dr. Becker stated, and went
on to. assure his hearers that the col­lege
will face its problems and not re­treat
from them.
The Banquet was officially closed
with the singing of the Alma Mater.
The occasion was made colorful by
the untiring wonk of Mrs. Hudson and
her Pallete Guild members. Strips of
red and blue crepe paper were inter­woven
on lattice for a background to the
speakers’ table. Tapers, in the colors
of our country afforded light for the
dinner, and place mats on red and
blue squares, with contrasting liberty
bells added to the color. The programs,
done in blue on white, and the nut cups
built on stars were also part of the
decorations.
To further add to the colors of the
decorations, the women guests were at;
tired in formals and corsages, .with their
male escorts complete with boutonniere.

BIRTHDAYS OF THE
GREAT
COMMEMORATED
AT RECENT
ZETA MEETING
The February meeting of Zeta was
held Monday evening, February 19, at
8 p. m in Zeta Hall. In beeping with
the theme commemorating Lincoln and
Washington’s birthdays, Nancy Hull led
the group in some group singing, with
Ruth Becker accompanying on the
piano. Mildred Kuhn gave a reading
on Lincoln, and a one-act play was pre­sented.
Those participating in the play
were Sandy Leedy, Esther Bean, Ruby
Parent, Nancy Hull and Dawn Betterly.
To close the program portion of the
meeting Ruth Becker played several
patriotic numbers on the piano.
The business meeting was then open­ed
by President Dawn Betterly, who
directed the discussion along the thought
of a possible union with the Music
Club and the Palette Guild, forming a
newt organization, A Fine Arts Club. No
final action was taken on the matter,
Miss Betterly reports, but final action
is to be taken at a special ailed meet­ing
soon. Dawn also reported a “better
than average” attendance at this meet­ing.
CAMPUS PLAYHOUSE
HAS DRESS
REHEARSAL
The program of the March 1st meet­ing
of Campus Playhouse was very in­teresting,
according to all reports. It
doubled as a dress rehearsal for the one-act
comedy, “Too Much Salt.”
A .different idea was then tried. In­dividual
members entertained the group
with pantomimes. These proved very
entertaining and enlightening. Several
pantomimes were then given by the
group. They were based on some famil­iar
fairy tales.
It was reported in the business meet­ing
that reading of plays for the spring
production has begun.
The cast of “Too Much Salt” is plan­ning
to try an experiment in central
staging. This places the audience on all
sides of the playing stage. This is the
first time they have tried such an idea
and it is reported that they will have
many problems to solve in connection
with it.

FOUR GAMES
February 17 found the Foresters en­tertaining
the Taylor Trojans. The
game was played on even terms for the

fire and it was a race between time and
keeping them from reaching the century

Playing their third game in four
nights, the Foresters journeyed to Terre
Haute. Ind., to engage Rose Poly for
their second meeting of the year. The
Rose Poly Field House had a regulation
college floor and. as a result, the added
length and the lack of rest, soon wore
the Foresters down. The first half
found the teams playing on even terms
but the Foresters were never able to
come any closer than eight points in the
last half.

N.C.’S SPORT SHORTS
There has been some question as to
why there have not been any programs
at the home basketball games this se­mester.
The Varsity Club had the re­sponsibility
of seeing that such pro­grams
were printed, but for some reason
the number of spectators dwindled to
the point where the time, money, and
xwork it took to print the programs did
not equal the services they were doing.
As a result, the programs ceased to be
printed ... I see where .Tune Brown
is playing basketball with a W.A.F.
team in San Antonio, Texas. June was
a student here at H. C. last year . . .
We are all glad to see 'that the opera­tion
on Curly McDowell's knee has
been successful. Curly had the opera­tion
done between semesters but he is
already doing a little running . . .
The Foresters have their hitting over
.310 in practically all their games which
is a high enough percentage to win prac­tically
any ball game. Could it be that
the Foresters didn’t shoot enough in
their ball games? . . . The Migration
Game’at Indiana Tech 'was a success.
I do not see why the attendance at the
home games could not have been as
large as the one at Indiana Tech. I
realize that there are quite a few stu­dents
working, but they could have come
to the Saturday night games at least. It
is mighty discouraging to thW team and
the yell-leaders who practice hard to
have to perform before a handful of
students. A school dies when its School
Spirit dies. Let’s keep H. C. ALIVE!
. . . Has everybody heard about Wrong-
Way Stites? In the Rose Poly game
Elmo threw in a basket for Rose Poly.
Is it possible that Huntington College
has a scandel? I don’t thing so, Elm
just lost his head.
FORESTERS TO PLAY
POST SEASON GAMES
The Foresters have two post-season
games scheduled. The first game, spon­sored
by the WjA.A. and with Camp
Atterbury furnishing the opposition, was
played on March 3. Details of this
game will be in the, next issue. The
second game is the annual Varsity-
Alumni Game sponsored by the Varsity
Club. No date has been set for this
game yet.
Indiana Tech at the Armory in Fort
Wayne on February 24. The game was
played before a large crowd of Hunting-ton
rooters who had migrated to Fort
Wayne. With the large crowd yelling
for, them, the Foresters played inspired
hall to win their fourth victory against
fifteen defeats.

THE GREEN HORNETS
Girls basketball was reorganized this
year under the direction of Coach Lei-man
after being disbanded for one year.
The first game played this year was
played with Taylor at Taylor. The in­experienced
Huntington team was de­feated
by the tall Trojannets. Murn
Ziegler was the high scorer for the
Hornets. The second game was played
in the gym with Manchester who finally
won the game by three points, the score
being 53 to 56. Murn Ziegler was again
high point getter as she scored 42 of the
53 points. The third game of the season
found the Hornets playing a return
game with Manchester at Manchester.
They were able; to hold Ziegler to 22
points as they scored a 42-47 victory.
Saturday, February 17, the Hornets met
the girls from Taylor in a return en­gagement
to close their season. The Tro­jannets
threw qp a -heavy defense around
Ziegler and was able to halt the high
scoring Hornet and walk away with a
51-37 victory. The Hornets finished the
season with a record of four straight
defeats. The girls had a small but
scrappy team but like the Foresters
were not able to scpre enough points
to be on the winning end. Murn Ziegler
led the Hornets in scoring this year and
was followed by Marty Lawver.
